  2. School Library Media Graduate Students (ISP523L) • Graduate students • NYSED Requirements (25 of the 100 required hours of field experience) • NYS and ALA standards • Collaboration with K-12 partners (School Library Media Specialists, teachers, & students) • Development of a multi-media curriculum project Stefl-Mabry/Powers

  3. Web Development Undergraduate Students (ISP361) • Create web pages • Work with clients and web team • Understand users’ needs • Unique opportunity to do all three within a single course Stefl-Mabry/Powers

  6. Conceptual Framework • Problem-Based Learning(PBL) • teaching and learning approach with roots in medical education at McMaster University, Hamilton, Canada (Zumbach, Kumpf, & Koch, 2004) • “PBL uses case-based learning in small groups and is designed as a curriculum rather than just as a single lesson approach” (p. 25) • Contextual Inquiry • designing products from a designer’s understanding of how people work, collecting data by observing people and their motivations and details to create a shared understanding of the data by researchers and users (Beyer and Holtzblatt, 1999) Stefl-Mabry/Powers

  7. Conceptual Framework ‘cont. • Cooperative Inquiry • design approach involving multidisciplinary partnerships (Druin, 2002; 1999; Large, Beheshti, Nesset, and Bowler, 2004). • Participatory Design • collaborative team effort in all areas of the design process. Users are best qualified to determine their work and work life (Large, Beheshti, Nesset, and Bowler, 2004). Stefl-Mabry/Powers

  8. The Importance of Learning “Connections” Students who see the relationship between the tasks they do in school and what they do in life are likely to learn with a different intensity(Abilbock, 2002, p. 2). Stefl-Mabry/Powers

  9. Benefits of Collaborative Learning • Practice what students need for the real-world • Create a learning network using collective social capital (Noguera, 2003) • Develop and design multimedia curricula in response to users’ real needs (Bilal, 2000; 2002) • Integrate technological, pedagogical, and methodological appropriate solution(s) across disciplines • Build a multimedia curriculum project based upon continuous feedback from vested stakeholders (Druin, 2002; 1999; Large, Beheshti, Nesset, and Bowler, 2004; Fullan, 2005) • Grow information professionals who are “developmental leaders (system thinkers in action)” (Fullan, 2005, p. 102). Stefl-Mabry/Powers

  10. Future... • We will continue to investigate how collaboration can enhance teaching and learning environments • Please visit the ten poster sessions and provide us with feedback and suggestions • Interested in participating? Please contact us with curriculum needs and/or questions • Exit survey tonight Stefl-Mabry/Powers

  14. Information Professionals School Library Media Specialists are effective teachers as well as effective information professionals. The elements of collaboration, leadership, and technology are integral to every aspect of the school library media program and the School Library Media Specialist’s role (AASL, 1998). The creation of a collaborative environment has been described as the “single most important factor” for successful school improvement initiatives and “the first order of business in order to enhance the effectiveness of school communities” (Eastwood and Louis, 1992, p. 212). In addition to school districts, previous course projects have engaged corporate, government, and non-profit partners to ensure that students receive the cutting-edge skills that they can apply immediately in the marketplace.
